The Great Ocean Road and the 12 apostles




The Great Ocean Road runs along the coast outside of Melbourne, winding its way up toward Adelaide. Some of the best coastal scenery in the world can be found along the Great Ocean Road. Probably the most visited site is the "Twelve Apostles," which apparently used to be known as "The Sow and Her Piglets," until some marketing genius realized that folks might not travel round the world to see "The Sow and Her Piglets," but they would to see "The Twelve Apostles." Go figure.
